One of my chins was just diagnosed with pretty severe malo last night. In the xray, it is very obvious that the roots are going everywhere. Two of the bottom ones are extremely long that they might be poking out pretty soon. As soon as I saw the xrays, I immediately started crying because I thought that she would need to euthanized right away to relieve her from the pain. To my surprise, the vet actually wanted to give her metacam and keep her going to see if she can gain some weight. I am just super confused right now. Of course I don't want her to go, but I don't her to suffer like this. Sure, metacam can alleviate the pain for a while, but how long is it going to last before we have to up the dose? Are we going to wait until the two roots actually poke through her bottom jaw? I don't know what I am going to do at this moment. :cry3: Any suggestions or advices? Thanks.
